"Terri" I felt someone shaking me.
"No go away" I rolled away from the disturbing hand "Wake up young lady or you'll be walking to school today".
"Mom can't I miss school once , my attendance record is perfect" I said eyes still closed.
"That is why it shall remain that way, now get up cause you will be walking to school if you miss that bus" I groaned as she pulled back my window curtains allowing the sun's rays to assault my eyes.
"Mom please just for today I'm begging you can't I stay home" I said as I rubbed my eyes while sitting up.
"You're not going to waste my hard earned money Terri, so get your butt up and prepare for school" I groaned and plopped back down on my bed.
She looked at her watch "You have exaactly a hour and a half to prepare" she began to walk out my bedroom.
"I've already ironed your uniform, do not get your shirt nor skirt wrinkled while dressing , you can be a bit clumsy"
Gosh did she had to mention that "Mom please everything doesn't have to be perfect "
"With me it does " she smiled and walked out my room with the click of her heels echoing.
Did I mention I go to a prep school , yep I do I don't know why she complains about spending her hard earned money on sending me to a private when there are alot of public schools perfectly capable of educating me. I didn't ask to go , I didn't ask to be stuck in the middle of rich and arrogant boys and rich and snobby girls .
At least two good things have I gained my best friend Lisa and also the school is Co Ed although the guys are the way they are at least there's some cute ones for me to ogle at, can't stop a girl from day dreaming.
I got up from my bed and hurried through the tasks of becoming fresh and clean. I took a rather cold shower to jump start my not yet awake body and brushed my teeth twice after, it's a habit I've had since forever.
After I began to put on my uniform , I stood infront of my closet mirror , my uniform is so outdated I know my mom is happy about how it fits me like crap, although the school harps on and on about sticking to the one standard uniform the kids still tweak there's here and there while complying with the school rules .
I know the authorities can't say anything cause they won't want to upset the little ones very rich parents.
I rolled up my plaid skirt a bit so that it can be above my knees , my mom made them longer than the school's requirements. I then concentrated on my unruly mop of curls I parted it in two and then placed the top half in a bun.
I grabbed my backpack and blazer , plugged out my phone and placed it in my pocket with my ear phones and rushed down the stairs to the kitchen.
I stumbled a little as I reached the doorway "You madam , should of been in bed since eight , but nooo you want to stay up late listening to silly music that won't get you anywhere, now you're rushing to get to school" Let the nagging war begin.
"Mom seriously the morning is bright and your mood isn't can you please change it"
"Don't sass me Terri , now stand straight" I straightened up while she studied me .
"Pull that skirt down, put on your blazer now" I groaned as complied with her orders, she can be over bearing sometimes.
"Now come and eat your breakfast before it gets cold"
I saluted her "yes sir" she glared at me.
I ambled over to the counter and wolfed down my breakfast which consisted of eggs toast and juice.
